An Amazon Best Book of August 2016: When Powerhouse first crossed my desk I was mildly intrigued with the idea of getting an inside look at the Creative Arts Agency, which has come to represent some of the biggest names in Hollywood and beyond. Then I read fifty pages and was totally hooked. I'm not even familiar with all the players-though of course names like Tom Cruise and Michael Ovitz jumped right out-but it didn't matter because their anecdotes about the people and personalities who re-wrote the rule book on how agents work with their celebrity clients are completely addicting. There are stories of overblown egos and overindulgence, brilliant strategy and crushing betrayal-this is a no-holds-barred account of five decades of Hollywood's movers and shakers told by the people who lived it. Whether you're an avid movie goer or only watched the Academy Awards when Tina Fey was hosting, Powerhouse is a front row seat to the building of an entertainment industry icon in all its garish glory. And it's nearly impossible to look away. --Seira Wilson, The Amazon Book Review
